    Dropsy PLEASE HELP

    I think my fish has dropsy and I want to try and treat it and I do have a spare tank but I don’t have an air stone to put in the tank and can’t afford to buy one right now as I’m very low on funds and even if I ordered one I’m afraid it wouldn’t get here in time. Can I keep the fish in the tank...

    Algae/diatoms problem

    My tank has been established for 6 years. I currently have guppies, cherry barbs, and black neon tetras in it. I’ve always gotten diatoms and green algae except when I keep the lights off 24/7. I have part of a pothos plant in my filter to help with the excess nutrients in the water in my...

    Bullying - PLEASE HELP

    I just got cherry barbs yesterday and one of them is picking on one of my guppies and the guppy’s tail fin is tattered from the cherry barb biting at him. I have fake plants in the tank that the guppy hides in, but every time he tries to come out the cherry barb bullies him. I don’t want to...

    Bully fish

    I think one of my guppies is bullying my new one that I just got yesterday because the new one stays hidden or at the very top of the tank and I noticed when he tries to swim around the bully fish watches him intently or swims over to him and bumps him with his nose. I don’t want to rehome...

    Quarantine tank

    For a quarantine tank can I just use a Rubbermaid tub with an air stone and a heater? Do I have to watch the fish like they’re TV or just a daily check in the mornings? And do I feed them while they’re in quarantine?

    Dying fish

    I bought new fish a few days ago and the next morning I went to feed them and I accidentally dumped a whole bunch of food into the tank. So I immediately tried to net some of it out and I did but I also did a 50% water change and gravel vac and took the filter apart, rinsed the filter media in...

    Extremely clean filters?

    I’ve had my AquaClear filter for 2 months and the tank has been established for 4 years. I’ve had a sponge filter for 2 years and it still looks brand new and I squeezed it out a few months ago and the water didn’t turn brown or black. Same with the AquaClear; the sponge and filter floss don’t...

    Rattly AquaClear

    My AquaClear’s been silent up until now. I took it apart and cleaned the impeller and inside the motor, but it is still making a kind of rattling noise. It’s more rattly on the low setting. Is it time for a new impeller shaft and impeller? I’ve had the filter for only 2 months.

    Sick/dying fish

    I have one fish that is swimming rather weakly. He is so weak in fact that he floated down to a plant and stayed there for a few minutes. He also kind of swims straight up to the surface and stays there. I have great surface agitation though because I have a HOB filter plus my sponge filter...

    Plant suggestions

    I want to invest in live plants, but I want very low maintenance plants that don’t require high-end lighting because all I have is a Beamswork EA FSpec. Please give me your suggestions.

    Water changes

    When dosing dechlorinator after a water change, do you dose the amount for the whole tank or just enough for the amount going back in?
